Tomorrow is the Big Day!

"Go Ferndale!!!"

Oh my gosh, I am getting so nervous! This time tomorrow my mouth will be cut open! Ahhh!! I'm not looking forward to it at all, but am glad that I am getting it over with. I've already got my smoothie supplies since that's all I'll be able to eat for a while. I'm glad Charley will be home to take care of Ella for me. I'm not looking forward to going to work on Friday looking like a chipmonk...

I got to babysit my baby nephew Luke this week. The poor guy just wanted his mommy. He cried the whole time. It's funny how quickly I've forgotten how much work newborns are! Brought me back to when Ella was a baby with colic. Fun times...

We had kind of a crazy morning last Wednesday. I heard a scratching sound coming from the living room. I went into the living room and could see the pipe for the wood stove shaking. I started to freak out because I figured it was a rat. I ran and shut the door so it couldn't get into the house. I got Charley to come home from work and we got it into a box and slid a cookie sheet over the top of it. Charley ran out into the back yard and took the lid off. Much to his surprise it flew away!! It was a bird...
